Anyone can draw a portrait on a canvas. da Vinci wasn't the first to do so, nor the last to have become famous in doing.

Generative AI is just a tool, and best users of a tool is those most experienced and driven. Not angry, fanatic, self-proclaimed-anti-luddites.

Your assertion fails even the slightest scrutinity, I* was able to create this extremely beautiful piece (https://i.imgur.com/4AOHe6A.png) just minutes after installing some stable-diffusion-GUI and I'm neither experienced or driven, AI is not just a tool, its way more close to the definition of robot (or bot) than the definition of tool; and its just beguinning, those models are gonna get better and better, including a better understanding of the nuances of what its being asked for it based on context clues (e.g. previous prompts, tags, etc) making it even less important to become "experienced" or "driven" as the models themselves favor those audiences.

* For the most possible loose definition of "I"

I...suspect your Mk1 discriminator could use a few thousand more epochs of training. Those SD kids are spending hours trying to pull a best seed for prompts, and then not getting much interests(public and financial) back.

Apparently these image generators are starting to be used in those industries for ideas and mockups - by first drafting conceptual arts using generators, and then tasking humans to completely redraw everything by hand. Final images contain nothing generated, so no copyright issues, no uncanny valleys like found in that image, no professional job security concerns. That's what it's doing. Supercharging the best, giving false hope to the rest.

For now. I don't see it staying that way.
